Not showing understanding or kindness toward someone's suffering or difficulties; unmoved by another's feelings.
From 'un-' (not) + 'sympathetic' (from Greek 'sym-' together + 'pathos' feeling). The prefix negates the meaning of the base word.
Studies show that being unsympathetic actually makes people more stressed and anxious—empathy isn't just nice, it's neurologically healthier for everyone involved!
